Clinical Social Worker (Health/Correctional Facility) - Wasco State Prison (WSP)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Department Information: Vision, Mission, etc. Could be "About the role" or "About the department". Likely "About the role" includes description of role and department. - Job location: Wasco State Prison in Wasco, Kern County. - Position number: 180-220-9872-XXX (but we should not put Job ID as heading; we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Probably include in a paragraph. - Note about email communication. - Department Website: cchcs.ca.gov/careers - Job Description And Duties: includes PLP 2025 details about salary reduction, leave credits, etc. Also mentions Hiring-Above-Minimum (HAM) Authorization, authorized HAM rate: P $8,678 - Q $9,319. Recruitment and Retention Bonus may be available: $10,000 one-time stipend if employed six months; monthly recruitment and retention differential during first year totaling $20,000.

That's application instruction; we should remove application instructions per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop the review dates and "Until Filled". Also drop the note about indicating position number? That's maybe minor metadata; we can include in a short p. - Also drop the "Please indicate the position number on your application: 180-220-9872-XXX." That's application instruction; we should drop. But we could keep as minor metadata? The instruction says: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include position number in a short p. - Also "Note: Main communication for this position will be through email. Please ensure you have a valid email address on your application." That's application instruction; drop. - "Department Website: cchcs.ca.gov/careers" maybe keep as minor metadata. - The PLP 2025 details about salary reduction etc. That's about Pay/Benefits? It mentions base salary reduced by 3% and receive 5 PLP leave credits monthly. That's about Pay and Benefits. We should include a Pay section if posting actually states them. It does state salary reduction and leave credits. Also mentions HAM rate: P $8,678 - Q $9,319. That's pay range. So we can include Pay section with that info. - Benefits: Recruitment and Retention Bonus details: $10k one-time stipend, monthly differential totaling $20k, referral bonus $5k. Also maybe PLP leave credits as benefit. So we can include Benefits section. - Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit. - Responsibilities: The duties described: assessments, case info, diagnosis, treatment plans, group therapy, collateral conferences, documenting progress, coordinating placement. That's responsibilities. - Requirements/Qualifications: Not explicitly listed besides being a Clinical Social Worker (Health/CF) Safety classification. Might be implied: need to be a Clinical Social Worker, likely requires licensure (LCSW). Not explicitly stated. So we may not have explicit requirements. Could omit Requirements/Qualifications sections if no specific content. - Skills: Not listed. - About the role: Could include department vision/mission, location, etc. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all substantive info from posting, but we can omit boilerplate and application instructions. Let's extract substantive info: - Department Vision: "We enhance public safety and promote successful community reintegration through education, treatment and active participation in rehabilitative and restorative justice programs." - Department Mission: "To facilitate the successful reintegration of the individuals in our care back to their communities equipped with the tools to be drug-free, healthy, and employable members of society by providing education, treatment, rehabilitative, and restorative justice programs, all in a safe and humane environment." - Additional statements about CDCR and CCHCS commitment to transforming correctional landscape, etc. That's substantive. - Commitment to building inclusive respectful workplace, attract diverse candidates, foster inclusion, etc. - Across organization, programs work cooperatively to provide highest level health care possible to diverse correctional population. - Encourage creativity and ingenuity while treating others fairly, honestly, with respect. - This advertisement is for a Clinical Social Worker position located at Wasco State Prison in Wasco, Kern County. - Position number: 180-220-9872-XXX (maybe keep as minor metadata). - Note about email communication (application instruction) drop. - Department Website: cchcs.ca.gov/careers (maybe keep as minor metadata). - Job Description And Duties: Effective July 1, 2025, PLP 2025 details: base salary reduced by 3%, receive 5 PLP 2025 leave credits monthly through June 2027. Salaries do not reflect recent changes. Part-time employees subject same conditions prorated. Permanent intermittent employees subject same condition based on hours worked. - This Job Control is listed Until Filled. (drop as application instruction) - Applications will be reviewed on dates... (drop) - This classification is subject to Section 5, Hiring-Above-Minimum (HAM) Authorization of the California State Civil Service Pay Scales. The authorized HAM rate for this classification is P $8,678 - Q $9,319. - Recruitment and Retention Bonus may be available for clinicians newly hired with CCHCS. Individuals may be eligible to receive a $10,000 one-time recruitment and retention stipend should they meet eligibility criteria, including but not limited to remaining employed with CCHCS for six months. Additionally, individuals may be eligible to receive a monthly recruitment and retention differential during their first year with CCHCS (totaling $20,000), should they meet eligibility criteria. - IMPORTANT: CDCR/CCHCS employees may be eligible for a $5,000 referral bonus should you be selected for hire, and remain employed with CCHCS for 90 days. For a CDCR/CCHCS employee to be considered, a questionnaire must be completed... (this is about referral bonus process; we can keep the bonus info but drop the questionnaire instruction? It's part of the bonus details; maybe keep the bonus but drop the questionnaire instruction as it's application instruction? The instruction says remove application instructions. The questionnaire is part of the referral bonus process; it's not exactly an application instruction for the job but a condition for bonus. Might be considered part of benefits. Safer to keep the bonus amount and eligibility, but drop the questionnaire details as it's procedural. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; the questionnaire is substantive info about how to get the bonus. But it's also somewhat instructional. The instruction says remove application instructions; this is not exactly an application instruction for the job but a process for bonus. I'd keep it but maybe shorten? The instruction says "fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." The questionnaire detail is not minor metadata; it's part of the bonus. I'd keep it. - Under the general direction of the Senior Psychologist... (duties list). - You will find additional information about the job in the Duty Statement. (maybe minor; could drop as it's reference.) - Equal Opportunity Employer boilerplate to remove. Now we need to decide sections. Potential sections: - About the role (or About the department): include vision, mission, commitment statements, location, department website. - Responsibilities: duties list. - Benefits: PLP leave credits, recruitment/retention bonus, referral bonus. - Pay: HAM rate, salary reduction note? Actually pay includes base salary reduction and HAM rate. Could combine pay and benefits? But we have separate headings allowed: Pay, Benefits. We'll include both. - Possibly "Qualifications": not present; we skip. - "Skills": not present. - "Schedule": not present. We must not emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So only include sections with real content. Now craft HTML. We'll start with a
for minor metadata: position number and department website maybe. But instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a short p with position number and website. Let's do:
Position: 180-220-9872-XXX • Department website: cchcs.ca.gov/careers
But we should not add extra markup like ? It's okay; it's still HTML. Not prohibited. Now sections:About the role
